Commemoration of the 50th Anniversary of the Opening of Hong Kong City Hall慶祝香港大會堂開幕50周年

The Hong Kong City Hall was officially opened on 2 March 1962 by the Governor of the time. The complex took on the role as Hong Kong's first civic centre, fostered the growth of Hong Kong's performance arts, and also housed the first public library in Hong Kong. It enjoyed a high reputation among the citizens of Hong Kong. It is currently a Grade I Historic Building.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------香港大會堂於1962年3月2日由時任港督正式揭幕，成為香港第一個文娛藝術中心。大會堂見證了香港表演藝術的發展，提高市民對藝術的認知，市民皆對大會堂的功能和價值有很高的評價。基於大會堂的歷史價值，它現時被評定為一級歷史建築。

Jardine House was once the tallest building both in Hong Kong and in Asia when it was completed in 1972.
